Jazzcat, you read my mind. I was wondering, too. And Elizabethann, whatever you name her will be A-OK. I still think Tripod is a cute name. It's not demeaning at all. It aptly describes her condition: Tri means 3 and pod means foot and she has 3 feet/legs. But she's your cat and you can name her whatever you like. I just hope you get her. She deserves a good life. :)
Laura's Babies use to post a link to Patrick's Journey. He is a young man who was terribly burned in a house fire, and it took many many months for him to recover.
He wound up getting a Bengal kitten who was missing a leg, or part of one. Pat didn't mind, because he had had physical challenges too.
He named the cat Meter. Meter is "about three feet". :D
Catnapper..you think of opera because Madame B-utterfly is a beautiful opera. Madame Flutterfly is a great way of thinking of your little fluttery ballerina.
I can't wait to hear news of this new special baby coming to PT with welcoming smoochies. :D
I *love* Flutter's name and always have! She's our little Flutterby, which is what we always called butterflies in my family.
Candace, I was thinking about Patrick's Meter too while I was reading this story. I miss the daily log by Pat's father. :(Quote:

Poll???
Yes, she has a thread in Pet Poll in General. :)Quote:

She is such a love. She slept with me & Fenway last night. Fenway was on one side of the bed and JoJo was in the middle. I was on the other side of the bed (all 3 inches). Luckily, I managed to not fall off the bed. :D
Now, JoJo and Fenway, you guys need to make a little more than 3 inches of room for Meowmy on the bed! Or, maybe you can do what Cassie Kitty does to me. She lets me lie down first, and then she climbs over me, parks herself squarely in the center of the bed, and purrs. I wish I had a nickel for every night I've given up trying to move her and slept on the sofa.
